I am drawing my new Tarot cards, called the “Hagur Vampire Tarot,” my previous drawings of the Major Arcane being in 2004, inspired by the Order of the Nine Angles. I recently started drawing with the Major Arcane, to continue afterwards with the Court Cards, and obviously the Minor Tarot, altogether 78 cards. I drew so far the seven first cards of the Major Arcane, with the description as hereunder. The artwork is published gradually as I go along in the form of magazines, as the work will last a very long time, and maybe never be finished at my age, being an old man. So, herewith, the first issue. Hoping you appreciate my work.

Foreword
I am drawing my new Tarot cards, called the “Hagur Vampire Tarot,” my previous drawings of the Major Arcane being in 2004, inspired by the Order of the Nine Angles. I recently started drawing with the Major Arcane, to continue afterwards with the Court Cards, and obviously the Minor Tarot, altogether 78 cards. I drew so far the seven first cards of the Major Arcane, with the description as hereunder. However, the zero card, “The Fool” is an important but separate card, representing the Psychic Vampire during his transformation time, and the searching human. It also represents Percival. Myths and metaphors, like the reality of dreams, are powerful tools that draw Vampire, listener, dreamer and even the reader to a character, symbol, or situation, as if in recognition of something deeply known. Myths bypass the mind’s effort to divorce emotion from information. They make an impression, are remembered, and nudge us to find out what they mean. You will agree that a great work has now started by gradually drawing the 78 cards of the Tarot on the Vampiric Philosophy. Each card of the Tarot has its own story, and has a lot to say. Down the ages since its invention, the Tarot has become a sacred book, not revealed by god, but man. Man is the creator of God, not God of man is commonly agreed today. The Tarot is a high place on the mountains to dwell on, a place where Vampires meet the immortals, “Those Who Have Risen” that are present in the collective consciousness. The Tarot permits consciousness, like sunlight, penetrate the more surface depths of personal feelings and illuminate what is there. And the more one works at his mental condition as in meditation, much that is hidden, dark or simply a mystery will be revealed. Psychologically, as in all Western civilizations derived from Ancient Egypt as well as Ancient Greece, the very summit, the Mont Blanc, is the realm where culturally sanctioned archetypes dwell, a meeting place for Psychic Vampires in transformation and other older ones. It is also true that whatever is discounted by religious people as a whole, and some other in our society more traditional minded go “underground”. Be it known that in mythology, the mental realm and the divinities with the mind, 2

will, abstract thought, and power are very much honoured. Through our active Vampiric way of life, we live on the summit, while those who represent devalued attributes do not. The Vampire in the physical body flows by as historical time, but is part of an eternal cycle with “Those Who Have Risen,” as archetypes in collective consciousness. The Hagur Vampire Tarot Magazine keeps you informed about the artistic and meditative progress of my work along the 78 tablets (cards) of the Tarot. Keep in touch with that whole experience of mine. It will be published on Scribd, and obviously appear on my Facebook for you to read and ponder on. The usefulness of the Tarot, all sets, not just my own creation, as fantasy images, may identify with a hero or heroine, or with an admired group., and take on some of their characteristics; and maybe two or more heroes may merge. And, these fantasy figures may come from the past and even the imagined future, as well as from the present. Dr. Roberto Assagioli’s of psychosynthesis is that the subpersonalities must become aware of one another before any integration can take place, so a phase of coordination is essential when it happens. During this phase, called the vampiric transformation period, inner changes occur within the subpersonalities, even becoming dominant and exclusive. Indeed, symbols like the Tarot cards are visible representations of an invisible intangible brain reality, something from inside being revealed in the world outside, something as spiritual in something concrete, something special in something ordinary. The power of the archetypal structure of the Tarot cards never fails to move; one feels lured irresistibly into its paths, and there one finds what its tablet is prepared to discover. Yet one cannot build on what went on in the past because in contrast to alchemy, gnosis and cabalism, we no longer have any accurate knowledge of its history. Every vampire and initiate should draw and paint (or at least commission such from a good artist) their own Tarot pack, using the guidelines which we will give sometimes in this or other issues of the magazine. I hope that meditating on these cards with contribute to individualisation as a process in which Vampiric transformation and growth are achieved through tapping into the limitless unconscious psyche where the archetype – inborn from 3

The Tarot or “Book Tau” as it is often called is a pictorial book of ageless, psychological and metaphysical wisdom. For centuries it has been used by what was and still is, used by those the human calls magicians and occultists, and mystics for the purpose of divination in the first instance, and meditation or pathworking. More than any Holy Scripture of the various religions, it is the key to all science and not only the occult. Psychologically, it is a map for uncovering the various parts of the human psyche. The origin of the Tarot remains a mystery, like so many other mysteries the templars tried to unveil, working as servants among the intellectual Muslims during the Crusades. Various theories abound, including lots of speculations that the Tarot is of Egyptian origin; that it was created by a group of adepts to insure the survival of a persecuted esoteric philosophy by Christianity mainly, and this through concealing it in a deck of playing cards. It is also said that it was invented by the gypsies (Bohemians) to protect its hidden wisdom under the exterior disguise of gambling and fortune telling. Whatever it is said, the first known Tarot decks can only be documented with certainty as having been developed in the late fourteenth century during the reign of Charles VI of France. During the first part of the fifteenth century, the Tarot was used exclusively at the European courts of Nobility, from St.Peterborough (Prussia) to Paris (France), and so on and forth. The Tarot, and occultism as a whole, had become a pastime reserved for the aristocracy. The invention of the printing press made the cards more common, and to a larger use. In 1781, interest in the Tarot gained force when the Court de Gibelin, a freemason and a Protestant minister claimed that the Tarot’s Trump cards were a secret Egyptian book called “The Book of Thoth”. It is traditionally accepted and I like to believe this that the Tarot originated in Egypt. Certainly, Egyptian symbolism has inspired Tarot designers for hundreds of years up to this day, and today decks use “conventional” Tarot imagery whose roots are undeniably Egyptian as found among the Aleister Crowley Tarot. Besides, some of the earliest decks include; the Tarot of Jacquemin Gringonneur, the Tarot of the Visconti-Sforza family, and the Tarocchi of Mantegna. 8

Next to the Major Arcane of twenty-two trumps, the key of the whole Tarot of 78 cards, we have the Minor Tarot of fifty-six cards., including the Royal (Court) Cards of King, Queen, Prince and Princess of Wands, Cups, Swords and Pentacles. Altogether sixteen Court cards: 1. WANDS (or sceptres) comparable to Clubs. 2. CUPS (or chalices) comparable to Hearts. 3. SWORDS comparable to Spades. 4. PENTACLES (or coins) comparable to Diamonds. Next to the Royal (Court) Cards, we have ten small cards of each suit, referring to four worlds, as there are four elements, earth, water, air and fire. The Paths of the Cosmic (or Vampire) Tree of Wyrd are twenty-two, active and moving along the other fifty-six cards as we will see. They are conduits or energy channels running throughout the Cosmic Tree of Wyrd.

Worth noting
The Tarot, next to the use for meditation or pathworking, is also an instrument of divination, intended to answer questions and concerns of the vampires and humans daily. The Tarot allows, through its images, to prevent, provide solutions, guide choices, and improve one’s various situations in which one finds him or herself. It is extremely simple and easy to “spread” the Tarot cards, and no superstition whatever should come and disturb the mind (brain function) of those who use it.

Notes on Spirituality
It seems that when anything material is unfavourable even very poor, is this an opening for spiritual development, and from there the way back to success and happiness. What is for you spirituality? For me, is the practice of spirituality “meditation”, as an entering in the silence of the mind, the seat of all power. Everything has its starting point in the mind. In the mind created man “God or Gods” (a Divine or Cosmic Being), where the reverse is untrue. There is no God having created man. This is religious animation! Such a view has helped, but no longer does. Mind acts with full power and directly on Matter. This is at bottom a miracle operated by a secret inner Consciousness supported by a veiled MindEnergy of Lifeforce. The action is nowhere seen to be direct, overt, selfsufficient; it is always super-imposed on an already realised physical basis and acts by an extension of some established process of nature. The spiritual aspiration is innate in man; for he is, unlike the animal, aware of imperfection and limitation and feels that there is something to be attained beyond what he now is: this urge towards self-exceeding is not likely ever to die totally in the race. The human mental status will be always there, but it will be there not only as a degree in the scale of rebirth, but as an open step towards the spiritual and supra-mental status. Meditation, the Bhagavad Gita yoga technique of the mind, enlarges the sense faculties. Life is the putting forth, under certain cosmic circumstances, of a Cosmic-Force which is in its own nature infinite, absolute, untrammelled, inalienably possessed of its own unity and bliss, the Conscious-Force in which we all are untitled. Here, the Bhagavad Gita teaching becomes so important, in that man who has the knowledge not to disturb the life basis and thought-basis of the ignorant accepting any religious philosophy without thinking for and by himself. This is, obviously, a disorder and personal incapacity, even accepted by many great souls as a temporary passage or as the price to be paid for the entry in a wider existence. The truth is the opposite. All solution has to be sought by the mind, but not by the mind alone; it has to be a solution in Life, in act of being as well as in consciousness of being. 97

Using the Major Arcane for Visualisation
Before thinking about fortunetelling, whether it is your past or future, one should use at least the Major Arcane for meditation and visualisation. Visualisation is simple. In the area chosen for the ritual, adopt a comfortable position (sitting, lying or a ‘meditative posture’ – the position is not important, only that it be comfortable) and in this position visualise in detail but without any emotion the sequence of events desired. Visualisation may be said to be willed ‘day-dream’ and to be effective requires calm but concentrated attitude of mind. To assist in the visualisation, various external triggers may be used to create the right atmosphere or mood: firstly, using your preferred Tarot set, more appropriate the Major Arcane and Court cards, excellent incense if you can stand it, preferably according to the planet of sphere to the working, and even candles of the planetary colour used to provide the only light. Before beginning the visualisation, vibrate the word appropriate to the planet three times in succession. As I am acquainted with the ONA Philosophy (The Order of Nine Angles), see hereunder: Planet Moon Mercury Venus Sun Word Noctulius Satanas Darkat Karu Samsu Appropriate Workings Hidden knowledge Lust/Indulgence Love/Enchantment Prophecy/Revelations

The visualisation should be as natural and realistic as possible. Examples: (a) You wish to obtain the sexual favours of a particular person. You visualise the person, here you may use the trump card VI-The Lovers (it is a help not a means), and then in as much detail as possible the act itself. This is exactly what the Psychic Vampire does in thought in a crowd or at distance (read my electronic books on Internet). (b) You desire to cause alarm to a neighbour who has annoyed you. You visualise the person in bed at night and yourself standing over them. You smile and by your strong will form the energy of the acausal dimensions into a peevish imp (imagine the energy like swirling mist which your will forms into the imp). You set this imp at the foot of the bed to create mayhem and then yourself depart. You and I are astral (psychic) beings in the first place, having a physical body to move about on earth, is always useful to remember. It is important for success in this technique for the visualisation to become for you as real as possible, like the reality of a dream while it is being dreamt. To obtain this, it is necessary to be relaxed and calm – any emotion generated should be avoided, but to the images in the visualisation and then in a controlled way, never frenzied but rather cool and deliberate.
